Ntate Member

The fat man at the end of the long table Speaks and we know he is not very able All the time playing with his paper We ask what will be his next caper Speaks to the chairman in a stinging way Changes his mind like trees that sway Championed you can do what you like Advises management to take a hike Ntate member claims he is not a gentleman Those colonial titles he is not a fan Berates a colleague for addressing him so Then anger and ire begin to flow You, he warns, need to mind your mouth Or I will go over and give you a clout I am known as the college bully And I intend to live up to my name fully The vicious man will sooner or later explode Hatred and resentment are his heavy load You, call me member or not at all I see the fat member riding for a fall
